School Councillors, Peer Mediators and Housecaptains. After a busy day of keynote speeches, workshops, and discussion groups a 'long' list of school improvement suggestions was created. Our pupils then engaged in a 'short' listing exercise where negotiation and compromise were the main criteria for working. Our long list of over 60 suggestions was short-listed to just 10 suggestions, and after a period of presentation and delegate voting this short list became a final list of just 6 main recommendations for school improvement which will now go forward into the adult School Improvement Conference and finally onto our Full Governing Body. Listen to the views of our confident young people. http://www.radiopeterbrook.com/download/mp3-podcasts/news/Pupil_School_Improvement_Conference-858.mp3 Tue, 09 Dec 2008 20:05:00 +0000 06:34 with our Year 6 carol singers!!

During this term our children have been taught how to play the African drums by a very talented teacher, Mr. Blick. Both Year 4 classes, have learnt a series of songs and rhythms. Our four pieces were presented to Years 1,2 and 5 as well as the parents of the children involved in drumming. http://www.radiopeterbrook.com/download/mp3-podcasts/news/Year_4_African_Drumming-898.mp3 Tue, 16 Dec 2008 20:08:00 +0000 22:05 with Dong Huixin and the children There are times as a teacher when you know you are witnessing something special - an achievement by children which goes way beyond the norm - something unique. Today was such a time when forty of our Year 5&6 children performed in Mell Square Solihull, at the inaugural Chinese New Year celebrations for the town. In freezing weather our pupils looked amazing and sang in Mandarin Chinese a very difficult Chinese New Year song in front of hundreds of people. Their singing was simultaneously broadcast 'live' by BRMB Radio across the whole of the West Midlands region. It was a stunning achievement and our pupils are a credit to their school, their parents and families and most of all, to themselves!!
